This reply also falls in the category. It’s easier and faster to downvote poor responses and move on.

Not when there's three like-minded accounts upvoting each other.

		There were pretty good responses so far and the only people coming below the bar are folks like yourself. Time for some self reflection. Instead of complaining about comments on HN perhaps you should review your own behavior.

I take that reply as a "bar raiser" that HN commenters should be better, not as a low quality/effort reply.
